GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall Harlingen High School South is a good high school. I had a good experience with the students and teachers. The staff members were always helpful. I know high school isn't the same for everyone, but my experience went well. They are strict about rules, which includes dress code and use of schools.
